Unable to find Gu Changge, Nangong Jin followed Zhao Xiao'ou.

It was already past closing time, but Nangong Jin hadn't seen Gu Changge appear.

Instead, I saw Qin Yun.

Nangong Jin coldly questioned, "Where is that bastard?"

"Is Jin Shao asking about my Master Zhi? He had something to do and couldn't come."

"If you spend too much time with him, you'll catch his scumbag tendencies."

"Young Master Jin, I've picked up the person I needed to meet, I'll be leaving now."

Nangong Jin remained silent and followed Qin Yun's car, the one who had come to pick up Zhao Xiao'ou.

Gu Changge simply sent Zhao Xiaogou a message, telling her to leave with Qin Yun.

She argued with Nangong Jin while her son was around, not wanting him to see it or to affect his upbringing.

...

Qin Yun only arranged for Zhao Xiao'ou to stay at a hotel.

Unable to see Gu Changge or Jiang Zhi, Nangong Jin was furious.

He stopped the car, got out immediately, and pulled Qin Yun out of the car.

"You have to tell me where Jiang Zhi is? You two bastards deserve a beating! If I can't see him, I'll beat you up."

"Come with me."

...

Twenty minutes later, Nangong Jin met Jiang Zhi.

He rushed over and grabbed Jiang Zhi by the collar.

"Hand over my son!"

Jiang Zhi smiled faintly, staring at Nangong Jin with an inscrutable gaze. "Do you really care about your son? Since you're here, sit down and have a cup of coffee. It's on you."

"Bullshit! Who cares about your coffee? I have money, can't I buy my own? You bastard! I want to punch you!" Nangong Jin raised his voice and also raised his fist.

Jiang Zhi's smile deepened, showing no fear of Nangong Jin.

He knew Nangong Jin's temper very well.

Whenever Gu Changge's matter comes up, the elegant Dr. Nangong becomes a hot-tempered devil!

He has no manners whatsoever.

“You can beat me to death, but you'll never see your son again. I slept with your son last night, you know, he was talking in his sleep.”

Talking in your sleep?

What was said?

Nangong Jin frowned slightly, "Don't try anything funny, I won't let you off easily."

Jiang Zhi's sharp gaze remained fixed on Nangong Jin, neither dodging nor flinching. "Sit down first. If we really fight, you're no match for me and Qin Yun. Even if you're fierce and ruthless, if you win but we're injured, and you end up in jail with a criminal record, you can forget about seeing your son. And if Changge fights you for custody, you might not win!"

"What you're saying is utter bullshit, it stinks!"

"You think I smell bad, yet you still want to stay here? Aren't you just asking for trouble?"

"Don't try to talk your way out of this. I'm not buying it."

“Jin, actually, we’re pretty much in the same boat. What I’ve been through is pretty much the same as what you’ve been through. Why not take it easy? You’re a grown man, you can afford to suffer losses, why be so petty? Besides, you’re really not at a loss. You have a son who’s almost three years old, and that little guy is adorable.”

"Don't flatter me. You're much luckier than me. You're spouting nonsense! If you envy me, then you should be Nangong Jin!"

"Fine, give me your son."

"Dream on!" Nangong Jin glared fiercely at Jiang Zhi.

"It's too unsightly to talk like that. Please sit down. I don't want to be the center of attention."

"Don't think I won't beat you up, and don't get cocky!"

Nangong Jin rolled her eyes at Jiang Zhi, then let go of him and sat down.

“We may argue and bicker, but we’re still brothers. We’ve never fought since we were little, unless we’re beating up someone together. Your son is very happy, well-behaved, and polite today. I took some videos for you to watch.”

As he spoke, Jiang Zhi showed Nangong Jin his phone.

Jiang Zhi stirred some coffee, picked it up, and drank it.

Then he continued, “Your son was talking in his sleep last night, it startled me. He was calling for his mother, he misses his mother.”

Nangong Jin remained silent and watched the video.

It was my son playing with Gu Changge, and the little guy was really happy, along with Gu Yi'an.

Upon seeing Gu Yi'an, Nangong Jin frowned. "Why is he here too?"

"It's only right that he comes to persuade his daughter to come home."

"You call yourself a brother, but you stab me in the back. You're a scumbag!"

“I know you’re extremely upset, but I won’t argue with you. Everyone except you wants Changge to go back, so your opinion doesn’t matter at all. For your son’s sake, you should think about this carefully. Your son doesn’t have a mother, and when he sees other children being taken to school by their mothers and playing games with their mothers, he cries.”

Nangong Jin did not argue, but the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

Jiang Zhi continued, "Every day, your son is growing up and becoming more sensible. Do you think you can still hide things from him or lie to him? No matter how much you resent Changge, she is still your son's mother, and that's an undeniable fact. Why don't you control your temper and try to get along with Changge peacefully for your son's sake, so as not to hurt him?"

Nangong Jin remained defiant, blaming Jiang Zhi, "If you hadn't kept it from me and brought him to Jiangzhou, I could have kept it from him. I would have told him when he grew up."

"Don't you think your son is pitiful? You are depriving him of the right to acknowledge his mother."

Nangong Jin was quite agitated and argued, "It was Gu Changge who insisted on giving birth to the child, and it was she who abandoned the child at the postpartum care center without a word and left. Why should she acknowledge her son? What has she done for her son? Where was she when her son needed his mother the most?"

"All I can say is that it takes two to tango! You all have your reasons, and you're all wrong."

"She's such a troublemaker, always causing trouble, and she even schemes against me."

"You always think about her shortcomings, but what about yours? They've already happened, so you should both compromise. Even if you can't be husband and wife, you'll still have to see each other in the future. For your son's sake, be more magnanimous and stop acting like you're always seeing each other as enemies."

"You don't feel the pain when you talk about things that don't happen to you."

“You used to be so rational and confident when you talked to me, but when it comes to your own affairs, you think things through completely.”

"I'm not talking to you anymore, you're annoying! Just give me back my son right now!"

“Your son refuses to come with me. He insists on staying with his mother. He's holding Gu Changge tightly and won't let anyone else hold him. You've had your son all to yourself for so long, so let them spend some time together. Maybe you'll be going back to Haicheng in a couple of days.”

“Tell me the address, and I’ll go pick up my son myself.”

"I don't know where Gu Changge lives either."

Nangong Jin's anger flared up again, and her face instantly darkened. "Jiang Zhi, are you looking for death?! You helped her move, how could you not know where she is? If you're going to lie to me, can't you at least try to be a little more clever?"

Jiang Zhi shrugged indifferently and said, "I did help her move, but she didn't go home. She even took Rui Rui out to play."

Nangong Jin glared fiercely at Jiang Zhi, "You scoundrel! Don't call yourself my brother anymore, I don't have a brother like you."

"Have some coffee, it'll cool you down."
